About Ara

We're building the future of clinical documentation. Ara empowers healthcare professionals to spend less time on paperwork and more time with patients.

Our Mission

To transform clinical documentation through ambient AI, enabling healthcare professionals to reclaim their time, improve patient care, and reduce burnout. We believe that doctors should practice medicine, not administration.

Our Values

Patient-Centric

Every feature we build starts with one question: does this improve patient care? We measure success by the time clinicians save and the outcomes they achieve.

Innovation-Driven

We leverage cutting-edge AI and machine learning to solve real problems. But we never sacrifice accuracy or reliability for speed.

Privacy First

Healthcare data is sacred. We design security into every layer of our product, from encryption to audit logs to data residency controls.

User-Obsessed

We talk to clinicians constantly. Their feedback shapes our roadmap. We ship features that solve real workflow problems, not vanity features.

Reliable

Healthcare can't have bugs. We maintain enterprise-grade uptime, extensive testing, and rapid incident response. Clinicians depend on us.

Ambitious

We're not here to build a small tool. We're building the ambient AI assistant that every healthcare team will use every day.

Why Ara?

The Problem: Clinicians spend 1-2 hours per day on documentation instead of patient care. They're burning out, and patients are getting rushed visits.

The Traditional Solutions: Human scribes are expensive and hard to hire. EHR templates are rigid. Dictation requires retraining. Room hardware needs IT infrastructure.

Our Approach: Ambient AI that listens to the natural conversation, understands clinical context, and generates structured notes automatically. No training. No hardware. No vendor lock-in.

We obsess over accuracy, compliance, and ease of deployment. We serve healthcare organizations that demand reliability, not toy startups.

The Team

Ara was founded by clinicians, engineers, and healthcare operators who've spent years in the trenches. We understand the pain points because we've lived them. Our team brings expertise from Stanford, top health systems, and leading AI labs.

We're Hiring

Join us in building the future of healthcare. We're looking for:

  • Clinical advisors and physician partners
  • Full-stack engineers (Node.js, React, TypeScript)
  • ML engineers (speech processing, NLP)
  • Healthcare operations specialists
  • Sales engineers and implementation specialists

Let's Transform Healthcare Together

We believe healthcare professionals deserve better tools. Tools that respect their expertise, protect their patients' data, and give them back their time. That's Ara.
